Another swipe at the myth of our 'functional' society. This time the focus is the Church. Whilst they are not the power in this country that they used to be, it would be unwise to discount them. read full story / add a comment

Anarchists are usually pretty good at listing the things we are against: capitalism, racism, religious sectarianism, authoritarianism and so on. We are usually pretty good at explaining how best to struggle: direct democracy and mass direct action. Where we often fall down is in explaining what we want at the end of the day, and convincing our listeners that it is a realistic alternative rather than a utopian pipe dream. read full story / add a comment

Continuing the theme that the model of society is broken beyond repair, this submission challenges pseudo-traditional notions about employment and its benefits. The Government is confronted often with logical arguments, which are often stated in very stark terms. read full story / add a comment

A further submission following the recent theme of this contributer on the idea that it is not just an aspect of our society that has failed, but that the whole model of our society has failed and cannot be fixed. It must be replaced. This piece makes some very strong accusations and then backs them up, some ideas are offered and the piece ends introducing the next piece to be added which will be on employment. read full story / add a comment

Finland like Ireland is a neutral state with a small population whose economic and social transformation is felt by its citizens to be thanks to its membership of the European Union. It has re-elected Tarja Halonen as President for the next 6 years. Her re-election ought be of interest to Irish readers, as her candidacy was completely supported by the Finnish Left Alliance party "Vasemmistoliitto" which founded in 1990 campaigns on a political platform of the "new global left" ; a party that promotes the ideals of the French Revolution - liberty, equality, and fraternity - in addition to peace and environmental values and is a member of the "Nordic Green Alliance" in the European parliament. Finland will thus suceed Austria (another neutral) as president of the European Union in July 2006 as a socialist state to take part in the G8 Russia conference on "energy security". ____________________________________________________________________ read full story / add a comment

The Fianna Fail selection convention for Galway West was abandoned yesterday. According to the headlines, the reason for the abandonment was the refusal of delegates to accept a head office ruling that only three candidates should be selected. The precise circumstances of the abandonment, as reported in the Irish Times however, indicate that it was not quite that simple. read full story / add a comment

The German company BASF Plant Science GmbH (an affilate of the giant transnational chemicals and drugs company BASF) has notified the EPA of its intention to deliberately release GMO potatoes into the environment 9km south of the Hill of Tara, on a 2 Ha plot at Arodstown, Summerhill, Co. Meath. The site is located 2km north of the R156 road between Dunboyne and Summerhill (approx. OS grid reference: N 885 500). If given the go-ahead, this would be the first Irish release of GMO crops since protestors ended Monsanto's GMO beet trials in 1998. The Notification submitted by BASF does not appear to include plans for any environmental impact assessment. Farmers, environmental groups and consumers have expressed total opposition to this unwanted experiment which would terminate Ireland's economically valuable GM-free status. The deadline for related public submissions to the EPA is 5pm on 22 February 2006. read full story / add a comment

Gerry McGeough, who campaigned for the fascist. Justin Barett in the European elections, appeared on WBAI's Radio Free Eireann today. RFE is hosted by John McDonagh, the representative of Republican Sinn Fein in New York. McGeough said that informers were not now even getting a rap on the knuckles. He said an appalling vista presented itself. He appealed to RFE not to let people like Niall O'Dowd off the hook. O'Dowd, said McGeogh, is an empty vessel. read full story / add a comment

a Brief report on the issues raised at "the Civil Society and Drugs conference" organised by the directorate-general Justice, Freedom and Security of the European Commission which has just closed in Brussels, Belgium. ENCOD (European Coalition for Just and Effective Drug Policies), is a platform of 120 Civil Society Organisations from 24 European countries. ENCODs coordinator, Joep Oomen, says: "By keeping the citizens away from the decision-making forums, they thought they could hide the truth about the war on drugs: that is a costly, failing and counter-productive affair." read full story / add a comment |
